Herbie is Walking Again! It has been 10 days since Herbie was unable to walk on his own due to a UTI that affected his back legs. (He has osteoarthritis in his hip and back legs) He has been on antibiotics for the same period of time to clear up his UTI and today was the last day of his antibiotics. We are so grateful that finally, today, he was able to stand up on his own and walk. He is still a bit wobbly, but definitely getting better.
The Public Service Message that we want to share it that this is what can happen to your pet if you choose not to have your pet spayed/neutered. Pets are living longer and if they are not spayed/neutered, they will live long enough to be a risk of UTI's, Cancer and other medical issues as a senior dog. Then, the problem becomes that they are not only too old to be spayed/neutered, but they may be too old to handle medical treatments for their illness. Herbie was never neutered and he is now 11 years old and he has had 2 UTI's and Prostatitis and all 3 of those illnesses caused him to suffer so much pain in his hind legs that he was unable to walk.
Please be sure to spay/neuter your pets and protect them from suffering in their senior years.
We brought Herbie to our Perpetual Care Life Care Center in 2024 after his owner went into assisted living. He will remain here for the rest of his life and we will provide him with medical care, comfort, safety and love.

Herbie our GSH rescue is having a very difficult time. He has a UTI which has caused him to be unable to use his back legs due to his osteoarthritis. He is on antibiotics but still can’t use his back legs yet so we have him in a room next to the door in order to help him go out as needed. The rest of his pack is keeping vigil with him. Can you count the number of Herbie’s supporters? Please keep our boy in your thoughts and prayers. ❤️ He gas 5 more days of meds so we will report back soon.

Shady is at UF Animal Hospital at WEC. Testing shows she has a UTI and hopefully she will be fine soon with antibiotics. Everyone was wonderful to her and special thanks to Dr Robinson. Hopefully she will sleep through fireworks and shooting going on for the Fourth of July.

Welcome Shady to Perpetual Care! We were holding Shady for a lady who went into the hospital for heart surgery and now she is in a rehab facility for long term so she turned sweet Shady over to Perpetual Care. Shady is about 14 years old. She has received veterinary care and is now current on her vaccinations and preventive care. Shady is a quiet and well behaved little girl and the Perpetual Care family of furry friends all love her already.

Bella Update 3/11/25: Bella says THANK YOU to everyone who wished her well, prayed for her and especially those who donated to save her life. Last Friday the vet recommended euthanasia for Bella and thought she might have a tumor that was blocking her re**um. On Sunday she became very ill, but we were able to proceed with her ER care thanks YOUR donations. On Monday, the Internal Medicine Vet said no tumor, no CT Scan procedure needed and did a simple procedure to relieve a stricture. LOOK AT BELLA NOW!! She is sooooo Happy! THANK YOU EVERYONE!!

The best part of having to do office work at Perpetual Care is that it includes snuggle buddies!
